  1. School Report Card:An Overview Students with Disabilities 2002-2003

  2. Eliminate unneeded referrals to special education. Return students to general education where possible. Referral rates remain within one percentage point for the last seven years. Preschool declassification is improving but school-age declassification is not. Special Education Report CardGoals vs. Results

  3. Educate students in schools with their nondisabled peers. Improve achievement of students with disabilities. More preschool and school-age students are in regular classes. Achievement is up in elementary and middle school Math, down in Grade 4 and 8 English. More taking Regents Exams; achievement is mixed. Graduation up. Regents Diplomas up. College rates up. Special Education Report CardGoals vs. Results

  4. Place 20,000 people in jobs annually, with more in integrated settings. Small increase in people getting jobs to over 15,000 annually and more in integrated settings but still short of goal. Vocational Rehabilitation Report Card: Goals vs. Results

  5. The classification rate of students with disabilities rose slightly last year but has remained fairly constant for several years. *The methodology to compute the total enrollment of all students was revised to reflect the current availability of enrollment data from BEDS enrollment reports.

  6. The overrepresentation of Black students in special education did not increase, and for Hispanic students it declined. Under Over Over Under Over

  7. The percentage of preschool students with disabilities declassified continues to increase, while school-age declassification remains the same.

  8. The percentage of preschool students with disabilities receiving special education services in integrated settings continues to increase and is above the national average. -------------------------- Integrated settings for preschool students with disabilities are those in which special education services are provided at home, part-time or full-time in typical early childhood programs.

  9. New York continues to surpass the national average: more school-age students with disabilities attend regular classes for 80+% of the school day.

  10. But more minority students are placed in more restrictive settings than are white students. Placement of Students with Disabilities by Race/Ethnicity December 2, 2002

  32. Special Education in the Big 5 How Students with Disabilities Are Doing Compared to the Rest of the State

  33. Minority students are concentrated in the Big Five Cities, where they constitute the majority. ---------------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------------------------------

  34. The classification rates of school-age students with disabilities in Buffalo, Rochester and Syracuse remain higher than in New York City and Yonkers.

  35. New York City provides special education services to the lowest percentages of preschool students with disabilities in integrated settings compared to other large cities. Most other Big 5 cities are well above the national average. Integrated settings for preschool students with disabilities are those in which special education services are provided at home, part-time or full-time in typical early childhood programs.

  36. New York City and the Urban-Suburban High Need districts are below the national average in serving school-age students with disabilities in integrated settings and they also place the greatest percentage of students with disabilities in separate education settings. *The large 3 cities include Buffalo, Rochester and Syracuse. Yonkers data are under review.

  37. Here’s a look at each of the Big 5 compared to the rest of the State. Percent of School-Aged Students with Disabilities (Ages 6-21)by Types of Education SettingsLarge Five Cities Compared to Other School Districts (2002-03) * Yonkers data are under review.

  38. However, all of the Big 5 are placing more students in general education classes for more of the day.

  39. More minority students with disabilities receive special education services in more restrictive settings. This is due in large part to the service delivery systems in New York City and Rochester. Placement of Students with Disabilities by Race/Ethnicity December 2, 2002

  40. Fewer Black and Hispanic students in New York City are placed in general education classes than are white students.

  41. Achievement of students with disabilities in elementary English is generally lower in the Big 5 than in the rest of the State, except in Yonkers. Elementary English 2003Percentage at Level 3 and Above Comparison of General Education Studentsand Students with Disabilities
